Matthew McConaughey Hosts We’re Texas – Which Includes An All-Star Country Line-Up

by jwills | March 21, 2021

Sunday night Matthew McConaughey hosted the fundraiser We’re Texas to help out his home state after it was ravaged by recent winter storms.

At just over 2 hours – the benefit featured music, stories, and appearances by Texans of all shapes and sizes. With performances by Willie Nelson, George Strait, Miranda Lambert, Kacey Musgraves, Parker McCollum, Clint Black, Kelly Clarkson, Randy Rogers, Gary Clark Jr. and Post Malone…who covered Brad Paisley‘s “I’m Gonna Miss Her.”

So far, We’re Texas has raised over a quarter million dollars to help those who could use a hand.

If you missed the fun Sunday night, you can watch it here, and the donate button is still active

100% of the donations raised through the Just Keep Livin Texas Relief Fund will support the critical short-term, mid-term and long-term needs resulting from the devastation caused by Winter Storm Uri. We are proudly collaborating with a number of carefully vetted and trusted partners on the ground in Texas.
